Description

A round-bodied pottery jug photographed on a plain grey backdrop, with its shadow falling on the surface beneath. It has a tall loop handle rising above the body, a tubular spout on the right and a small neck at the top. The surface is worn and flaked, with faint painted bands, and a large dark hole is broken through the left side of the body.
